The Food Innovation Center, in partnership with the Northwest Food Processors Association and the Oregon Chapter of the Institute of Food Technologists, will host the Food Allergen Webcast Series. The seminar series will run from November, 2004, through June, 2005 with these events scheduled:

  • Food Allergen Compliance and the New Law - November 30, 2004. The Food Allergen Labeling and Consumer Protection of 2003 sets new law on processing and labeling of food allergens. This webcast will provide an overview on requirements of the new law and how they compare with current FDA guidance for labeling and handling of food allergens. Speaker: Charles Breen, Seattle District Director
  • Managing Allergens in Food Processing Facilities - January 17, 2005. This seminar will explore strategies for managing these allergens in food processing to avoid cross-contamination. That workshop will be held live and, by special arrangement, will be available by webcast from the floor of the Northwest Food Processors Convention and Exposition in Portland on January 17, 2005.
  • Low Dose Exposure to Food Allergens: Policy Implications for Food Processors - March 29, 2005. Dr. Steve Taylor and a panel of industry and government speakers will explore the establishment of science-based food allergen thresholds. This research has numerous benefits to both the food industry and to the food-allergic consumer: reduction of allergen precautionary labeling on food products, a more meaningful label on food products and an increase in food choices, a true measure of "how clean is clean?" for the food industry. This session will explore these and other benefits, as well as the role of allergen thresholds in risk assessment.
  • FDA Food Allergen Regulations Update - June, 2005. This session is designed as an update on regulations pending implementation of the Food Allergen Labeling and Consumer Protection Act.
